Petition and Performance in the Apologies of Justin Martyr: The Apologies of Justin Martyr: 75 (Gorgias Studies in Early Christianity and Patristics) - Hardcover
Synopsis
Cline advances a suggestive reading of Justin Martyr's Apologies as a subjective appropriation of the forms and practices of the Roman system of petition and response. He offers an historical contextualization of the Apologies within both contemporary administrative culture and the wider literary environment, comparing the Apologies with extant Roman-era petitions, and using this comparison to shed light on Justin's transformations of the genre and their communicative significance.
